Trial Outcomes & Findings for Fluconazole Prophylaxis for the Prevention of Candidiasis in Infants Less Than 750 Grams Birthweight (NCT NCT00734539)
NCT ID: NCT00734539
Last Updated: 2019-03-01
Results Overview
The primary endpoint for the study is death or candidiasis. 1. Death prior to study day 49. 2. Candidiasis prior to study day 49 1. Definite: isolation of Candida from normally sterile body fluid (blood, CSF, urine \[obtained via sterile catheterization or suprapubic tap\], peritoneal fluid). 2. Probable: i. \> 5 days of consecutive antifungal therapy AND both: ii. Thrombocytopenia \<150,000/mm3 iii. Positive Candida culture from nonsterile site (ETS, bag urine)
